a. Model the situation with an exponential function.
 The exponential function that models the problem in this case is:
 y = 1056 (1.28) ^ t
 
Where,
 t: number of years

 b. Find how many alligators there will be in 8 years.
 For 8 years we must replace the value of t = 8 in the written equation.
 We have then:
 y = 1056 (1.28) ^ 8
 y = 7609.28193
 Nearest whole integer:
 y = 7609

 c. How many years will it take for the population to become 3000?

 For this we should almost replace y = 3000 in the equation of part A.
 We have then:
 3000 = 1056 (1.28) ^ t
 From here, we clear t:
 (1.28) ^ t = (3000) / (1056)
 We apply logarithm to both sides:
 log1.28 ((1.28) ^ t) = log1.28 ((3000) / (1056))
 t = log1.28 ((3000) / (1056))
 t = 4.229619111 years.

Divide the whole thing by 2
2(X^2+8x-5)
X^2+8x. =5
Half of 8 is 4 sq it so you add 16
X^2+8x+16= 5+16

Tell whether (-3,-1) is a solution of the system of linear inequalities<br> Is it a solution or not
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

In a system, there are two linear inequalities. The solution to the system is all the points that satisfy both inequalities or the region in which the shading overlaps. Given the system of linear inequalities shown in the graph, let's determine which points are solutions to the system.
